The heroic deeds of the Chinese People's Volunteers on the Korean battlefield have long been recorded in history, and the Battle of Changjin Lake is a thrilling historical chapter. November 1950,
The Chinese People's Volunteers fought a fierce battle with the US army in the Changjin Lake area, and Wu Dalin, a famous general of a generation, was controversial for his "passive cowardice". What kind of battle led to this outcome?
The Changjin Lake area on the Korean battlefield has a dangerous terrain and an important strategic location, and has become the focus of contention between China and the United States. In order to cut off the rear lines of communication of our troops, the US military launched a fierce attack on the Changjin Lake area.
* The Military Commission decided to send the 9th Corps to advance into the Changjin Lake area, and the 20th, 26th, and 27th armies under the 9th Corps, totaling about 150,000 people, were pinned on high hopes. However,
The harsh environment on the battlefield and the stubborn resistance of the US military made the battle extremely difficult. At Changjin Lake, the Chinese People's Volunteers faced bitter cold weather, a lack of supplies, and strong U.S. defenses
All of these factors made the battle extremely difficult. Especially in the fierce battles, some volunteer soldiers suffered from ** and frostbite, which led to a large number of non-combat attrition.
Although the volunteers showed tenacious will and heroic fighting spirit in the battle, they were ultimately unable to completely destroy the American army, and the battle ended with the battle losses of our army and the retreat of the American army. After the Battle of Changjin Lake,
Wu Dalin was removed from his post for "passive cowardice", and in this regard, he said that he was not really cowardly, but this conclusion was accompanied by the shadow of the rest of his life. In fact,
The victory or defeat of a campaign is not only determined by the command decisions of individual generals, but also by various factors such as the harsh natural environment, poor equipment, and insufficient logistical supplies, all of which have an important impact on the outcome of the battle.
The battle of Changjin Lake is a contest of will and steel, and every volunteer soldier who participated in the battle deserves our memory and respect. Although the process of the Battle of Changjin Lake was full of hardships and regrets
However, the bravery and tenacity shown by the volunteers in this battle are still admirable. They have made tremendous sacrifices and efforts to maintain peace and defend the dignity of their country. The battle of Changjin Lake has left an eternal history, let us remember the hardships and dedication.
